•
You must turn on the LF and LR burners when you use the griddle.

Do not remove the griddle until the cooktop grates, surfaces, and griddle itself
cool down.

If you leave the griddle on the cooktop, it may become very hot when you use
the cooktop. Use oven gloves when placing or removing the griddle.

oven gloves when placing or removing
the wok ring.
•
Do not use pans with a flat bottom or
woks with a diameter less than the wok
ring diameter. The pan or wok may tip

This cooktop is not designed to flame
foods. If foods are flamed, they should
only be flamed under a ventilation hood
that is on.
